Sapphire HD4870x2 Atomic Review

Testing:

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is the successor to the Call of Duty crown. This iteration of the game is fought in many of the world's hot spots with modern armaments and firepower. You can play as either a US Marine or British SAS trooper. Since this game does not feature an in-game test, I will run through a section of the game and measure average FPS using Fraps 2.9.3.

Video Settings:

Anti-Aliasing: x4

Anisotropic Filtering: Max

Texture Quality: Extra

All settings max

The Atomic is not the fastest at 1024x768 but sure steps up at the 1920x1200 resolution. The Atomic HD4870x2 is a massive 66 frames per second faster through our test run than the GTX280. Again, performance in COD 4 just does not drop off from the lowest to the highest resolution. If you can't get the first shot off at 170FPS you should not be playing.
